I-601 or I-601a?

[ssrd 0]

I have overstayed in US for more than a year and returned back to India in Oct 2013. Got married in Dec 2013 and my husband is in US with H1 visa. I have attended the visa interview for H4 visa and the visa officer has suggested me to apply for the waiver. Can anyone let me know should I apply for I-601 or I-601a waiver? or how to relate my case with extreme hardship?

I601a is only filed if you are here in the United States, otherwise you would file the standard i601.

@rylforever

for me i need apply 212 D3 wavier not a I601 waiver. I601 waiver only for USC/LPR, 212 D3 for non immigrant workers ,my husband working in us on H1. correct me if i am wrong.
